Okay I should have made clear that the above statement only applies if I
am in a station or the train is in a station or a part of the train is
in a station.


That may be ill-advised for your own safety; many of the deaths at
Kings Cross/St Pancras resulted from the fact that people left trains
and tried to evacuate via the escalator, when in fact the only safe
way from the station was by train due to the location of the fire?

So how would you do that if you were between stations on a tube train
when the power went off?

As quite frankly I would rather wait for a
station assistant with a flashlight than to be hit by a train when the
power comes on.

I'm sure a lot of people on this group feel very differently



Which only demonstrates the attitude of LUL staff regarding their
passengers.

And exactly what makes you think I am LUL staff? Has it ever crossed
your mind that I am just someone who is ****ed of with the troll CJG?


As you suggested you were speaking for more than one person it is irrellevent
whether or not you are LUL staff.

If the tunnel lights are off, the power is on. If the tunnel lights
are on then the traction current may be off or on.

Indeed, it rather looks like CULG is wrong. I'm sure Clive'll
correct it soon enough.


You clearly failed to read the bit that says:
| Temporary closures are mostly only shown if they lasted at least a
| week, though exceptions are made where I consider them interesting.

I didn't find it interesting.
